While my PC is down from lightning, and my art/crochet was limited by a wrist injury, I've been reading.

This isn't a 1:1 to my life by any means, but I resonated with it as a mid-thirties who never had a real education & grew up in a hyper religious home, & still trying to get my feet under me.
A screenshot from the Libby app, of a book concert. The book is called Educated, a memoir by Tara Westover, and the image on the cover features a large stylized pencil with a small person's figure standing in it.

Made another sale on my eBay store!! I'm going to be sad to see this one go, but I'm so happy it's going to a new home!

Honestly if I had more space in my home it would have been an immediate keeper, because it's perfect for me, but alas, I have no storage space so it must travel!

First day on the new job
A photo of some unfinished art - abstract doodles in black ink on white paper.

Thanks, I hate it.
A screen capture of a LinkedIn ad, which has been cropped to only two lines. It reads: "The average career is 42 years. Invest in your long-term growth with Premium." in black text on a white background.

Who had a spare $20 from doing Notarizations for some clients and bought a pair of vintage bowls with it?

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

A photo of abstract doodles, black ink on white paper. The doodles are almost lace or paisley in nature, with swirls and petal or leaf shapes throughout.

Crunchy, weird, sweet, and gluten free. ✌️👁️

Meanwhile,
A photo of some abstract doodle art, in black pen on white paper. The doodles vaguely resemble a paisley, lacey, semi-floral sort of vibe, with occasional swirly pieces.

Going freestyle with the crochet magic again; this fella has some Serious Vibes already.

It's time.
A screenshot from a phone screen showing upcoming calendar events. Today, December 1, is showing an event called "Season's Yeetings" taking place all day.

It worked, I bought the car litter, and I found some cool things, like this amazing neodymium vase and a book on painting
A photo of a nearly transparent purple vase in a light box. (In the background there are some small crystal trays.)

The original inspiration for this logo came from this photo I found 325 years ago and also because I'm very queer but want to be subtle about it while still being absolutely obvious
A photo of a stained glass window, looking through it to the outside, where a house and trees are visible. The shape is square, with the corners being colored so that the center is a diamond of clear glass. The colors are orange (top left), green (top right), blue (lower right), and red (lower left).

Rough draft of a logo - I fully intend to clean it up and also hand-draw the borders myself, eventually, but at the moment we're just out here throwing logos at the wall to see if it sticks. Thoughts?

Also: @nichestvibes.bsky.social - in case I ever post there.
A logo - the background is a very dark green. Central, a logo that is an uppercase N and an uppercase V merged to look like a weird shape; text below this reads "nichest vibes"; around the edges are some leafy floral decorative bits, orange at top left, green top right, blue lower right, red lower left.

I was just making a drink (these drops help me drink more water, so I'm not going to apologize for using additives, thank you, goodbye) but it turns out I made art as well.
A re-filled drink bottle, filled with water and flavor drops. The red color from the flavor drops has settled at the bottom, causing a gradient effect from dark to light as the water rises. The bottle is photographed in front of a window, to illuminate it and show off the effect.

I hear you like to indulge in some chill beats and lounge music at night... how about we start things off at about 170bpm and see how it goes?
A crowd screenshot of a Spotify playlist header for a "day list". The title is "hardcore hard dance late night" on white text on a dark blue and black gradient. Below, on a great gradient in white text with some keywords highlighted in green, it reads: "You listened to chill beats and lounge in the late night. Here's some: hardcore, hard dance, hardstyle, hard trance, j-core and hard techno" Below, it says "made for Goldar" and lists the duration (3h 18min) and when the playlist next automatically updates (3:41am).

The brain only wants to do this, but we've gotta draft estate plans and email people 😕

I still do not know what the mirror selfie hype is all about, it's so hard to not look like you're actively being possessed??

Anyway, I looked nice yesterday.
A photo of me, Goldar, taken in a mirror, wearing a dark gray shirt with 3/4 length sleeves and a belt high at the waist. I look a little bit confused or alarmed, but I'm smiling anyway.

My postage scale has arrived. We're one step closer to yeeting out of this job.

This weekend I'm going to get things photographed, weighed, and start listing.

(Picture unrelated, but it's today's anxiety sponge project.)
Doodles in black ink on white paper. Lacey, abstract, almost-floral on nature.

A piece of artwork. The background is a faint blue watercolor wash, with some areas having more concentrated color. Over this is a black pen abstract, with a not of lacy edges, swirly and wavy lines and loops, petals and leaves, and watchful eyes peeking out. Overall vibes are kind of creepy-soft, chaotic, and immersive. This image is a phone camera shot of the whole piece sitting on a desktop in the sketchbook. You almost can't see how bad the white balance is here, because the desktop is a warm-toned wood look. A piece of artwork. The background is a faint blue watercolor wash, with some areas having more concentrated color. Over this is a black pen abstract, with a not of lacy edges, swirly and wavy lines and loops, petals and leaves, and watchful eyes peeking out. Overall vibes are kind of creepy-soft, chaotic, and immersive. This image is a close up of a particularly lacy looking section. The color balance of the photo is awful, slightly turning the white orange. Embarrassing tbh. A piece of artwork.

Over this is a black pen abstract, with a not of lacy edges, swirly and wavy lines and loops, petals and leaves, and watchful eyes peeking out. Overall vibes are kind of creepy-soft, chaotic, and immersive. This image shows a close up shot of a section that has a lot of curly bits and petal shapes. As with the previous, that white balance is simply atrocious.

I live, I laugh, I love doodling in a brewery on a Friday night while most of my coworkers get absolutely trashed. 😂

(Photo from last Friday, I just didn't post it until today.)

{Also, I got a new phone and the camera is delicious.}
A photo of a sketchbook page. The background of the page has been painted with red watercolor, and over top are black ink doodles. The doodles are abstract shapes, somewhat lace-like, a little like paisley or floral, with squirrels, lips, and leaf or portal shapes. A pen sits on top of the sketchbook.
